Find me a team boss who is really interested in the young skilled talented driver struggling and working his butt off to find a 100k per season, the Fantin and Petronas money is what runs an M5
You need the whole 'show' upfront though to attract the drivers (and associated backers) now.

It would be difficult to convince Mr.Petronas that you were the real deal and worth spending money with if you ran your outfit out of the back of a horsebox....

The sponsors love all the hospitality guff too.
